Alternative Energy Proves Deadly for Birds
FoxNews (http://www.foxnews.com/printer_friendly_story/0,3566,106438,00.html)
Tuesday, December 23, 2003
The alternative energy movement is ruffling the feathers of animal rights activists.
Wind turbines, lauded for being an environmentally friendly energy source, are killing thousands of birds that fly into their propellers in the*Altamont Pass (search)*just east of Oakland, Calif., where more than 5,000 turbines have helped power the Bay Area for 20 years.
Jeff Miller, of the*Center for Biological Diversity (search), said the latest research indicates that one to two thousand or more birds are killed*each year in the area. Included in the yearly death toll are approximately 60 golden eagles, 300 red-tailed hawks, and 270 burrowing owls.
Two environmental groups are trying to stop the renewal of the windmills' permits to prevent more birds from dying in their blades.
The*Alameda County (search)*zoning board renewed a batch of permits in November angering green activists who demanded an environmental impact report and mandatory concessions from the energy industry to make the mills more bird-friendly.
"The public is owed an open environmental review of the issue," said Miller. "If the board of supervisors doesn't see it our way, I'm sure we'll look very carefully at some kind of legal action."
But the board felt the confrontation with the utilities was the wrong way to go.
"What we have is a conflict developing over the best environmental approach and that conflict is moving into a much larger scaled war than is necessary," said Larry Gosselin, of the zoning board. "We need a progressive study."

Budanski?
When you bother to post this type of article... what agenda are you playing?
How does this fulfill the criteria of a military-type, or military photo-type, article which you believe that we might be interested in or even find as hilarious as you do?
Merry Christmas

"To piss off lefties like yourself. "
Not good enough Budanski. I am not a "leftie"... and so I am not "pissed off".
Yet you admit that you waste our time, and bandwidth, on a board which discusses military photos, and military issues, in order to "piss off lefties"?
I suggest to you that this is not the platform you need. I also suggest that you find another board to "piss off lefties".
Just make sure that it's not a board which the "lefties" frequent. They'll make mince-meat out of you.
cheers

Anyway, it was a good intention poorly thought out. (in regards to said article)

Karl Rove would be proud of you my friend. You should be SO GLAD that your Corporate Masters have you spreadin' their agendas on "our" Military Dot Photos board... except we have a few foreign friends who are not arfraid to put you in the picture every now and again...
AND by GOD I'm afraid to... Because I might end up in prison because I think that this U.S. administration is ****ed and it is... unpatriotic" NOT to vote for bush.
I will NOT vote for that bastard in 2004...
They are proud of you budanski. They are proud of you because you never once asked if you were wrong, nor if ever that your fellow U.S. Citizens ever had some sort of a legitimate reason why they did not like the course your government was on?
You've lost... you moron, I really hope that your Corporate Masters won't try to steal the next election away from us again in 2004. Nor your job away from you next year before WE kick them OUT.
I'm fecking tired budanski... so PLEASE STOP thanking the conservative bitches on this board so much. We already know that you are a whore for Halliburton on this boad. Stop insulting us with your propaganda... our son.
You are like a little cheerleadeeeeder... our girl.

I am sure Hitler and Lenin had their buffoons, too. ( guess who I'm looking to right now? ;) ) Divvying up shares of confiscated wealth gives power to divvy up lives. Have we forgotten how the left murdered at least 100 million of their fellow citizens last century?

I am a democrate... BUT I FIND THOSE GRASS EATING HIJINXX FANTASTIC, windmills, ect things enviromentalists often push for, ARE NOW RUINING THEIR VERY PRECIOUSE FLOCKS OF WHATEVER THE F*CK
I think we should protect the enviroment but blah blah these ultra envriomentalists take this too far.
p.s. front I doubt that we need to worry about bandwith, and While I dont deny you may have been in the millitary most vet's dont consider their service hell, they consider it the best thing they ever did
you last spastic tangent ran off this thread so far that I didnt read the last part, but it was stupid rehtoric crap I assume. I dont like to "run my mouth" often but you just seem to have a profound ability to start arguments, Bud here posts a funny little thing, sure it should be off topic page but you know him... and you come snapping out with some crazied gun toting reply, then he just trys to laugh it off and you come back with some lefty whatever the fook crap like this is the third world war...
You need to settle down and get used to one of the most classic members of this forum, my freind, mentor, and overall kick a$$ guy.. BUD
so sit back settle down and have some fun, this is a hobby/recreational intrest forum anyways.

i saw the fox news coverage of this and it's basically two environmental groups 'looking for the best solution'. :cantbeli: idiots.
one 'environmentalist' wants to keep the windmills which will kill thousands of birds and the other wants to get rid of them to save the birds but putting more reliance on non-wind power.
retarded environmentalists.

I think it's funny as hell. Who would have thought that wind turbines would be anti-environmental? It just goes to show you that some people live in a consequence-free dreamworld where we all hold hands and sing folk songs 'round the fire.
I say, set up some nets at the base of the blades, catch the falling dead birds, and burn them as an alternative energy source. Or I suppose you could eat 'em. mmmmm pelican....
